Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Coverage Map at 4.7 against SignalSupervisor's 3.0. Coverage Map also leads on review sentiment (68% vs 31%) and ratings volume (798 vs 115). SignalSupervisor's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
